Notes |
Another version (possibly reproduction) is located in folder 11 (1805.025.11), and another reproduction is located in folder 36 (1805.025.36) in the Carlton Birch Letters collection. It is unclear if 1805.025.11 or 1805.025.37 is the original miniature. In James' Birch's letters (1805.025.13; 1805.025.15; and 1805.025.16) he mentions having his :likeness" created to send to his wife, Amanda. It is possible that this is the image to which he refers. |
